Even though her own show has been cancelled, you can still hear Molly Joyce's music — among a plenitude of other things — at Sandbox Percussion's all-day fundraising marathon. Sandbox is yet another marvelous small percussion ensemble doing exactly the kind of music this List supports: smart, inquisitive, and fun.
MAKE A NIGHT OF IT: On the one hand, it seems disrespectful to suggest a drink during these serious times. On the other hand, you may feel you can use one more than ever. Harry Craddock "invented" (it's actually virtually identical to existing cocktails) the Strike's Off to commemorate the end of the 1926 general strike in Great Britain in support of the rights of coal miners: pour 1-1/2 oz. Gin and 3/4 oz. each Swedish Punsch and lemon juice (you can also use lime juice) into an ice-filled cocktail shaker. Shake. Strain into a chilled Martini glass or coupe. Not to detract from Sandbox Percussion, but you might want to play The Byrds doing "The Bells of Rhymney", based on a poem about the continuing mistreatment of miners after the strike, while drinking it.
